Engineering Students from California Polytechnic Institute brought their

00:00:16,290 --> 00:00:20,290
Webb Telescope deployment model to the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.

5
00:00:20,310 --> 00:00:24,330
The students demonstrated this detailed, robotic version of Webb

6
00:00:24,350 --> 00:00:28,370
for the NASA team building the real thing.

7
00:00:28,390 --> 00:00:32,410
It's a 1/6th scale model, and it performs the deployments the Webb telescope will carry out before

00:00:32,430 --> 00:00:36,440
it begins science gathering. For 2 and a half years, the Cal Poly

9
00:00:36,460 --> 00:00:40,610
students worked with their mentors to tbuild the first physical representation

10
00:00:40,630 --> 00:00:44,640
of the Webb deployment. The team had only two requirements

11
00:00:44,660 --> 00:00:48,660
wok collaboratively and with only public domain information

00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,680
"the purpose behind this model was to give the public

13
00:00:52,700 --> 00:00:56,700
and people that don't really now much about the the James Webb Space

The Cal Poly, Small Deployment Engineering Model, or SDEM

will be at the Goddard Space Flight Center for the next month

17
00:01:08,820 --> 00:01:12,820
The team also built a deployable 1/20th scale and gave it to Webb

18
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,850
Project Manager, Bill Ouchs. The Webb team plans to use the Cal Poly

19
00:01:16,870 --> 00:01:20,900
team's gift during public outreach events.
